Voter turnout reached 35.1% at 7:00 p.m. This is shown by the data of the sociological agency "Gallup International Balkan" - partner of the BNR for the early elections for the 49th National Assembly.

The problems with the voting machines continue and more than 80 of them are already out of order.

The highest voter turnout by 11 am was in Montana - 14.07% and the lowest in Plovdiv - 6,16%. 
In comparison, as of 11 am, the voter turnout for the country in the early parliamentary elections on 2 October 2022 was 8.89%, with 586,898 voters having cast their ballots.
